GENERAL INFORMATION
System expansion
In conjunction with a TMC expansion, the system will show the current
traffic situation along your route, and will guide you around road
obstructions if desired. Numerous system expansions are available to
upgrade to an information and entertainment system.
Distance indications
On main roads, the distances to exits indicated by the system deviate from
those on road signs. The road signs on main roads refer to the start of the
exit, while the navigation system always indicates the distance to the end
of the slip road. This is the point where the driving lanes fork (separate).
Operating restrictions (country-specific)
If a symbol depicting a crossed out hand appears in the bottom status line
it means that only limited operating options are available whilst driving.
Whether or not this function is activated will depend upon the prevailing
national regulations.
GPS reception
The system has been designed to remain operational even when there is
poor GPS reception. However, positional accuracy may be impaired.
Start-up characteristics
If the vehicle has been parked for some time, the satellites will have
continued on their orbits. As a result, once the ignition has been switched
on, it may take several minutes before a sufficient number of satellites
are being received and the system can start analysing their signals.
Adequate reception (three-dimensional position) is indicated by the black
satellite symbol on the display. The satellite symbol remains red if GPS
reception is inadequate.
During the start-up process, the navigation system may report the
message: "Please proceed to the planned route". The system assumes that
the vehicle is located off a stored road. If other roads exist in this area,
the navigation system may issue incorrect messages. The system assumes
that the vehicle is located on a different road.
Automatic route re-calculation
If you do not follow the instructions of the system, the system will
automatically plan a new route.
